omen naturally are drawn to beautiful things, and jewelry is one of them. No matter the size or cost, it’s a great addition to whatever one is wearing. Jewelry has been a part of women’s accessories for as long as we can remember and the good thing is that it never goes out of vogue. Of course, the designs can become outdated as they also come in trends, but wearing it never does. There are varieties of baubles and intricate jewelry to choose from when it comes to selection, so much so that one is always spoilt for choice. Our taste and affordability is what plays a pivotal role in our choice, but when we need to make the right fashion statement, it comes in handy. The good thing is that you don’t even need an excuse to splurge on your choice. So, our

advice is: always invest in qualitative pieces that transcend seasons. On another note, you might be wondering what the fuss is about using steam for beauty and health. Well, the reasons are not far-fetched. One of the many beauty routines that women have bought into several years ago is a steam bath. Having a bath is not an exclusive right of women, but because our beauty treats know no bounds, we search for all things that benefit the body and soul. A steam bath might be all that is needed in times of stress or for simple rejuvenation of the skin. Learn from our beauty page tips on why you should benefit from it. Our featured personality is the founder of Purple Heart Foundation, Hajiya Fatima Zanna Gana, a trained medical doctor.

r. Fatima Zanna Gana was born in Kano state where she also started her early days education, but completed it at the St. Micheals’ School in the U.K and then proceeded to Dambo International College in Kaduna where she started her secondary education and also had to eventually complete at the Essence International School in Kaduna, she then went for her A levels in the U. K after which she returned to start her degree program at the Ahmadu Bello University Zaria but also left to complete it at the University of Maiduguri where she studied Medicine. After her graduation, she did her Internship at the UMTH as well as Youth Service after which she worked for about two years in the Medical line.

Hajiya Fatima is someone who really from childhood had nursed the idea of giving back to her community, and for this reason, she suspended her career as a medical Doctor to come up with her own school as well as an NGO named Purple Heart Foundation, a platform uses to assist the Orphans and people in need in her community as according to her, most of the orphanage homes she knows are always isolated from the society which she had never really liked. Her NGO is one of the foundations that are presently assisting the Internally Displayed Persons in the 28 L.G.A of Borno state. She speaks with Tambari magazine about her challenges in assisting the needy, motherhood and many more.

INTERVIEW BY Mulikatu Mukaila Challenges of catering to the needy My biggest challenge has been finance. I would love to do more but it is a bit tight these days and even international donors are so selective. I don’t blame them because people, in the name of non-governmental organisations, collect money from donors and end up doing nothing. Their bad deeds have given civil society organizations a bad name and that interest to help has been demoralized. I am hoping with the work that we have done so far, I wouldn’t have to ask anybody for assistance, people will just bring what they have to help these poor people.

Origin of Purple Heart As a child I always had the interest of helping people. After I settled in Maiduguri, whenever I saw on TV that somebody needed medical assistance, I always assisted in my own way. Even as a university undergraduate, together with some friends, we had an NGO through which we tended to the medically needy. We were quiet about it. However, after 9/11, we had to dissolve the NGO because it had a muslim name. After I got married, my husband encouraged me to register an NGO and do philanthropy properly, so in 2009, Purple Heart Foundation came to my mind. In secondary school, we had done class essays on World War 11 and that was where we knew about the Purple Heart medals given to deserving ex-soldiers. I felt that was in tally with the situation in Borno State because we are wounded and we felt alone, before the Bring Back Our Girls group and some other individuals rose up to start public advocacy about what was happening in Borno state. So that was how I came about the Purple Heart Foundation.

My aspiration as a child When I was much younger in primary school, I was always dreaming of owning an orphanage. Then when I was in secondary school, I wanted to become an architect. But then one day, I had to see a gynaecologist in Kaduna and I insisted on having his wife attend to me instead of him. He accused me of not being cooperative; I replied him that was the reason I would become a gynaecologist someday. It was like a joke but I ended up going in that direction.

Juggling motherhood and work It’s not been easy. One of the reasons why I stopped working in a hospital was because at a point in time, I couldn’t keep up with juggling motherhood and work. I had a young son and I was practically living in the hospital and things were so tight for me, so I had to decide. I shelved work when I had my second son, and now I have three of them. Now, being on my own gives me the room to manage my home and my businesses effectively. Having an understanding husband makes it easier.

My first experience as a mother I developed paranoia thinking anybody who carried him would drop him. I was really amazed the first time I saw him; I can’t express the feeling of love that took over my heart. Everybody talks about love, but I bet you would never know that love until you carry your own child in your hands.

“Everybody talks about love, but I bet you would never know that love until you carry your own child in your hands.” Fondest memories As a child, I think everything was fun because my father was a very adventurous person. We didn’t have to travel abroad to have fun. Those days were so safe and good; we would come back from school and our things could be in the boot of the car ready to hit the road for a trip

either to Yankari or somewhere else in Nigeria. So it was really fun for me.

People I look up to I would say my parents and my in-laws, especially my father in-law because he is such a simple human being. He is so positively philosophical about life. My mother in-law and my mum have a lot in common; they are very religious people and I am still praying to Allah that I would one day be like them. If I am the frank and outspoken type, I would say I take after my dad; I can tell him anything on the face of the earth. He is also fun-loving. My husband, on his part, is not just a husband; he is my best friend and my biggest supporter in everything I do.

What I learnt about life Life has taught me not to judge people and not to presume that because you do things for others, they will also reward you. I have also learnt never to let go of your childhood mates no matter how bad things are; those are your true friends. And then your family members, no matter what, are the best assets that you can keep around you.

Marriage experience I have learnt to be open. I have never hidden

anything from my husband from day one, even before we got married. My policy in our marriage is never to bring in a third party. Whatever the case may be, we will iron it out on our own.

How we met

“Life has taught me not to judge people and not to presume that because you do things for others, they will also reward you.”

I had known his mother and younger sister for a long time before I met him. His younger sister was my senior mate at Essence; we were just like a couple of Kanuri people there. We became closer when I had this project on Leonardo Da Vinci and I was told that there was this girl from Borno state who was into writing and might be of help. It happened to be Fanna and from that day, we hit it off as friends. Yunus, my husband, was her last family member that I met as he was in Maiduguri then working for the PTF. A year before we met, my mother had mentioned him to me one Ramadan period that we would make a perfect pair. I got angry with her. Surprisingly, after about four years, he became my husband, so I would say my mother’s Ramadan wish came true.

What I love most about him What I love most about him is his composure. I also see his father in him

and I think that is where he is heading and I can’t wait for us to get old because right now, his parents are having a blast with their lives, living life quietly and enjoying time with their children and grandchildren. I hope and pray that Allah gives us such long, peaceful lives.

Definition of fashion style I dress as I like, not as people dictate. Being a muslim woman, my first priority is to see that my body is well-covered, but I love to wear gown because I feel freer in it.

Beauty routine There are some women who cannot do without make-up. For me, I only make sure that when I am attending an occasion, especially with my husband, I try to look nice.

Legacies I want to be known as a person who gives back to her community hugely. I also want my school to remain and prosper in my community after my demise, because I believe that is the biggest legacy I can leave behind.

Q&A BY Pupwaya Timothy Dibal

ashion is not just about what to wear to look good or what is trendy. Getting clothes and the size that fits your body size and height also matters. If you wear something that is out of the world, you will make people around you to be whispering, wondering which planet you are from. Combining colours also matters a lot, so as a man try as much as possible to spice up your wardrobe with different colours. It may seem hard but it is easy when you put it into practice and you sure will make heads turn around to look at you. Looking smart and neat makes people to come close to you and also makes women want to be around you. Just follow the simple guides bellow and you are good to go.

Does body stature matter in terms of dressing? Absolutely! For instance, a fat man should not be seen wearing a tight outfit that will make all eyes to be on him wherever he goes. Wearing something tight will make him uncomfortable and also make him look like Melvin Oduah he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t belong to the 21st century. So it is always advisable to have the right tailor that will sew what fits your body size. Likewise, a slim person should not wear clothes that are meant for the one with a bigger stature or clothes that are too tight and show how bony he is. So go for the right clothes that fit your body size.

Should a man keep a long hair? Some men are in the habit of keeping long and bushy hair, which may attract dirt if not well taken care of. For you to look smart and neat and well-presented wherever you go, a clean and nice cut will do

Audu Maikori

Can a man wear bright colours? It is not a bad idea to have some bright colours in your wardrobe, though many men feel that only women should wear bright colours. A few splashes of bright clothes on the clothes you already have can make you stand stylishly apart from the crowd. You can use colour to accessorize your outfit, like wearing a brown belt on a blue jean. When selecting a colour, pay attention to your skin tone. The darker your skin complexion, the brighter the colour you should wear and those with very pale skin should go for a lighter colour to the medium hues.

URETHRAL STRICTURE

Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada - FCT. MOBILE: 0803 803 9182 EMAIL: nadewole2013@gmail.com

For the past eight months, there has been pain in my penis, which makes urinating a big trouble. I have been treated in an hospital for gonorrhea, but the pain persists. I have also taken drugs that include tarivid, erythromycin and augmentin but with no positive result. What do I do? This is most likely a case of urethral stricture. Treating for gonorrhea now is not the solution. The infection that led to this has occurred months or years before which was improperly treated or not treated at all. This is the same mistake a lot of people make, for example, when a woman with tubal blockage is being pumped with antibiotics, which is a useless venture. The damage has already occurred. What you need to do are some investigations which include micturating urethrogram. The procedure that may be needed include bougienage or urethroplasty. I will suggest you need to go to an urology clinic to see an urologist.

STAPHYLOCOCCUS FOR 15 YEARS

I have had a problem of staphylococcus infection for the past 15 years. What drug do I take to cure it? Any discharge? Most times, the culture done yields staphylococcus. It takes a good laboratory to know which staphylococcus seen is significant or not. Quite a lot of Nigerians, both men and women, worry about staphylococcus when it comes to fertility whereas the more dangerous and more prevalent microorganisms like chlamydial cannot even be grown in most laboratories in Nigeria. And this is why gynaecologists do not treat based on the laboratory result alone but also using symptoms and clinical findings. Going to quacks, doing laboratory tests and going

“Quite a lot of Nigerians, both men and women, worry about staphylococcus when it comes to fertility whereas the more dangerous and more prevalent microorganisms like chlamydial cannot even be grown in most laboratories in Nigeria.”

to chemists straight with the result have a lot of disadvantages, which is obvious from explanation above. Therefore, any time you have symptoms that suggest infection, seek appropriate expert advice.

NO CONCEPTION YET

I don’t release during intercourse with my spouse. I normally see a whitish discharge. I am 20 years old and have been meeting regularly with my spouse, yet there has been no conception. What do I do? Concerning not releasing or reaching an orgasm, you require an open discussion with your spouse. You have to be open and honest with each other. Generally speaking, men need to make conscious efforts to ensure their spouses reach orgasm. Unfortunately women are reluctant to open up to their husbands about this frustrating situation. It requires patience and understanding because women take a longer time to reach an orgasm. Concerning the whitish discharge, it is candidiasis. What you need is an anti-fungal, which may be one or a combination of oral, pessary and cream, depending on the extent of infection. Your family physician can handle that easily. I don’t know how long you have been married or having regular intercourse with your spouse but if it is up to a year, then see a gynaecologist for evaluation.

WILL IT AFFECT ME DURING PREGNANCY AND CHILDBIRTH? I get irritated and have menstrual cramps during my period. Does it mean that I will still experience this during pregnancy and childbirth? Mary, Plateau State. What you are having is primary dysmenorrhea. Definitely, when you are pregnant there won’t be menstruation, therefore, there won’t be dysmenorrhea. Also, it has no effect during delivery. Good enough, primary dysmenorrhea may get better with less pain after the first delivery.

Please, always include name and address when sending your health enquiries to us. Thank you

KANNY WOOD

Photo by: Sani Maikatanga

Being an actress is not as easy as it seems

- Aishatu Musa Aliyu BY Ibrahim Musa Giginyu

ishatu Musa Aliyu is seen by many fans of Kannywood as the next screen diva in the movie industry. She articulates composure. Her ability, which has endeared her to many directors and producers in the screen business, has accorded her a rapid growth in the entertainment sector. The 25-year-old Maiduguri-born actress talks about life as an actress and many more Who is Aishatu? I was born in 1995. I attended primary and secondary schools in and outside Maiduguri and I am presently undergoing an NCE programme. I came from a strong Islamic background. While growing up, we were taught the basic principles of being in an Islamic setting. Our parents always reminded us of our obligations as Muslims and also emphasized the importance of being educated. That is why up till this moment I have not relented in my quest for knowledge. How did you find yourself in the movie industry? While growing up, I was so much attached to watching TV drama. Though at that time I couldn’t actually understand what was being done, I found it very interesting to see people interpreting roles. However, it did not occur to me that what I was watching was just a make-believe and not reality until I grew up. Unknown to me, I was already developing this attitude of mimicking the characters in most of the TV dramas that I had watched. After my secondary school education, I became an ardent fan of Hausa movies. Moreover, my sister’s husband happens to be one of the movie practitioners in the sector and I got introduced into Kannywood through him. My first movie was Jirwaye where I played a minor role, but unknown to me I caught the attention of the director

and the producer of the movie. They told me I have the talent of being a star in the industry but I did not believe them. I merely took all what they told me as flattery. I was taken aback when, within weeks, I got a call to star in another movie titled Acuci Maza, and in another, Kicimilli. That was how my rise started and here I am today in the movie industry playing roles upon roles.

“Before joining the industry, most of the stories going round about the industry were usually not pleasant to the ear. Practitioners were painted as outcasts or even worse than that. But when I finally joined the industry, I found out that all those stories were concocted”

What was your parents’ reaction when you were joining the movie industry? Initially, they strongly opposed the idea because then people had their ideas about the move industry. Some believed that the industry was too rough for a young, innocent girl like me. However, after much explanation we were able to convince my parents to allow me give it a try. It has been years now and I have not given them a single cause to regret their decision to allow me be an actress.

How did you feel on your first day on set? I felt I was going to make a fool of myself. I looked at all the strange faces around me and I flinched, afraid I wouldn’t be able to do what I was expected to do. One of the artistes on location noticed my uneasiness, came to me and assured, “Never mind your feelings, we

all felt this same way you are feeling and we did it all the same. I believe you can do better than we did.” Those assuring words made whatever feeling of uncertainty I had to vanish. I have since played lead roles in a lot of movies, including the much-anticipated Sarki Abdallah.

How would you compare the stories you heard about the industry before you came in with what the situation is now? Of course, they are two different things entirely. Before joining the industry, most of the stories going round about the industry were usually not pleasant to the ear. Practitioners were painted as outcasts or even worse than that. But when I finally joined the industry, I found out that all those stories were concocted; most of them were lies. Agreed there are miscreants in the industry, but that doesn’t mean all in there are the same. We do have our pluses and minuses and I believe that our pluses are greater than our minuses. Are you into any relationship now? Well! That is a personal issue which I don’t want to publicly discuss now. May be when it is time to discuss that, I will gladly do so.
